Plans for another laboratory addition to Snow Hall are in the final stages, Keith Lawton, director of physical plant operations, has announced.
The new addition will provide additional space for all five departments of life science. Six stories high, it will add 25,000 square feet to Snow. The addition will be built on the northeast end of Snow, running diagonally between Memorial Drive and Ponder Lane.
The Kansas Legislature recently appropriated funds for the Snow addition, and it is expected that contracts will be let this summer.
"The new genetics laboratory addition to Snow Hall should also be finished early this summer. It will be occupied immediately after construction is finished." Mr. Lawton
Plans for a new building for the School of Engineering are also in the preliminary stages. The new building will be built in the area north of Allen Field House along Fifteenth Street.
Summerfield Hall, new home of the School of Business, will be completed this summer and opened for classes this fall.
"But people aren't concerned about anything except the present. This is why it is so hard to get 20-year-olds to stop smoking. They can't get too concerned if someone tells them that when they are 40 they may get cancer or coronary trouble because of their smoking," she continued.
With the Facts; Why Smoke?
"When a person knows that cigarette smoking does no good, but that it definitely does harm to some individuals, why would he smoke at all?"
These were the concluding words of Dr. Bentrice Lins, Watkins hospital physician, in a Daily Kansan interview.
"Almost all in the medical profession agree that one type of lung cancer is caused by smoking. I really thought more people would quit smoking on account of the recent cancer reports," she said.
Those who have had coronary attacks or who have lung conditions are the ones who get so scared that they quit, she said.
It was not the cancer report which convinced Dr. Lins of the evil of smoking, however. It was the report from ten years ago that smoking caused skin temperature change, and could cause Bergers disease, a vascular cell decaying disease.
"It is generally accepted that coronary patient) and individuals with lung conditions should not smoke, or at least they should cut down tremendously. And, there is evidence that ulcers are also aggravated by smoking so I always tell my patients who have ulcers to quit smoking." Dr. Lins said.
The project of putting up names on the buildings in aluminum lettering will be completed this month. Mr. Lawton said.
The Kansas Union construction that began in mid-March will not be finished until a year from June. The addition will cost almost a million dollars.
Mr. Lawton also said the University has recently purchased a teaching 10-watt nuclear reactor
and plans for a reactor building are on the drawing board.
Another major action taken by Mr. Lawton's office is the widening of the west approaches to the campus, involving several alterations to streets and sidewalks.
The main job in the alterations will be cutting back the corner at the intersection of West Campus Road and Crescent Drive at the southeast corner of the Chi Omega house.

WHO SAID IT FIRST?
A column of incidental intelligence by Jockey brand
"WHEN IN ROME..."
"When they are in Rome, they do there as they see done."
...do as the Romans do, we say, thus misquoting a line from Burton's "Anatomy of Melancholy". In this monumental book, the celebrated vicar stated it thusly:
"TO HAVE AND HAVE NOT"
The privileged and the underprivileged, the rich and the poor—most of us have a tendency to divide mankind into two classes. The man who showed us how to do it was Cervantes. In "Dan Quixote", he wrote:
"There are only two families in the world, the Haves and the Have Nots."
"JACK SPRAT"
No, "Anon" not coin the famous quatrain concerning the thin man and his peculiar eating habits. Instead, it was a certain John Clark in something called, "Paraemiologia," written in 1639:
"Jack Sprat will eat no fat, Jill and Dill jade lose no lean, Yet betwixt them both They lick the dishes clean."
